Armed with only $3,000, gut-wrenching fear, and absolutely no real estate experience… Mark bought his first few parcels of raw land in 2001. Today Mark is the author of Dirt Rich, the ultimate guide to helping you build a passive income. He's the owner of Frontier Properties, a reputable and successful land investing company, and has been buying and selling land full time since 2001. By focusing on working smart, not hard, he has completed over 5,500 land deals with an average ROI of over 300% on cash flips, and over 1,000% on the deals he sells with financing terms. Prior to his land investing success, Mark had a high-stress, soulless corporate job, and felt trapped in a state of solo-economic-dependency (i.e. his income stopped as soon as he stopped working). Escaping solo-economic dependency changed Mark’s life in so many positive ways that he decided to teach, coach, and mentor others to help them achieve their financial goals. Even though Mark invests a lot of his time helping others, he stays actively involved in running his land investing business and is dedicated to teaching the most current and relevant “real world” land investing methods to his students.

She's also acquired, restructured, and exited two significant European healthcare businesses, and remains involved in the agricultural sector.

Her early career experiences included a stint working at UBS in London in investment banking; being an operations manager in a fast-food chain; and two years as director of sales for a Christmas tree company. In today's episode, we discuss the fundamentals of relationship building, and how to move past the superficial connections so common with social media. In this episode, you'll learn... Why Relationships (Really) Matter As a species working together enabled our success, but we frequently forget how vital connections are. There’s a large body of scientific research that suggests strong bonds are the best predictor of our happiness, professional success, and even health and longevity. The Technology and Connectivity Paradox As transport and communication tech have created a hyperconnected world, humans have become lonelier and more disconnected. Social media doesn’t promote socialization so much as performative behaviors that make others feel isolated. Dunbar’s Number and the Question of Quantity vs. Quality Research suggests that we can’t sustain meaningful relationships with more than 150 people. That was fine in a village in 1800, but we can meet more people than that in a day in the modern world. Can technology help us increase the number of people we can stay connected to, or make those 150 bonds stronger and more mutually beneficial? Relationship Builders Put in the WorkWe wanted to know the secret to building stronger bonds, so we asked people who have a great reputation for sustaining lots of good relationships. Their secret? They use tools to help them remember the things that matter to those that matter to them. The problem, those tools aren’t designed for the purpose. Customer Relationship Management Isn’t About RelationshipsJust as social media promotes a lot of anti-social behavior, so CRM tools tend to create the impression that a business is managing relationships. But in reality, personalizing some mass emails is very different from building a relationship. Relationships are about the unique understanding between two people who care about each other… yes, even in business!
